Logi BASE Charging Stand with Smart Connector for iPad Pro

Overview

By taking advantage of the Smart Connector, the Logi BASE charging stand makes it a snap to charge your iPad Pro. Magnets in the charging cradle guide your iPad Pro into place to align easily with the Smart Connector. And thanks to the Smart Connector's minimal profile, the sleek, compact cradle also fits neatly on any flat surface.

Anti-slip pad on the bottom ensures strong surface grip

Curved shape provides high back support to ensure even the largest iPad Pro won’t tip over

Magnets in the charging cradle keep iPad Pro securely in place

Thin polycarbonate layer at the points of contact with iPad Pro for scratch-free docking

What’s in the Box

Great quality construction. Easily accepts iPad Pro 12.9 and starts charging immediately. Looks great. Angle is slightly more up right that you'd expect but that's a positive in my opinion. Awesome complement to the Original Wireless Apple keyboard.

Slick, minimal design as is to be expected of Apple. But they don't mention that it won't work with the smart cover or keyboard cover on. This means that here in very dusty Silicon Valley, I have to leave the screen exposed while it's charging (or put a bag over it).
I've set it up beside my Samsung Qi-compatible quick charger, which CAN charge my Android phone even through its thick case. This is yet another case of Apple valuing form over function. But if you can live with removing your screen cover and replacing it every single time you put the iPad on the charger, it works great. So I only removed 1 star from the rating.

The Logi BASE has exceeded my expectations. I love how stable it is, it feels like it locks onto my desk surface with an iron grip. The built-in magnets grab my iPad Pro 12.9 and securely hold it in place - they are strong enough that if I set down my IPP slightly-off center, they snap it into proper alignment. The viewing angle it provides feels perfect. When I use my iPP with an external keyboard (around 50% of the time) I am finding this combination ideal. Charging times through the smart connector seem comparable to when I plug my 12W charger directly into the iPP's lightening connector, although I haven't made a precise comparison yet. I hesitated buying this because the price is not cheap, but I feel it delivers good value for what I need.

This was the perfect stand. Solid construction. Bought from Apple store was very happy with this purchase. Until IOS 12 upgrade. Every time I dock the iPad to charge, it throws errors stating "Device not supported". Not just one message. Like 1 one message every 60 seconds with a chime to upset me even more. Only change was upgrading to IOS 12. Why Apple ? Why do you sell devices you do not support ?

This was not a problem for the first couple months, but now I can't see my iPad in iTunes on my iMac when it's on this dock. I have to unplug the cable from the back and plug it directly into my iPad. Now it's only useful as a stand. Lame.

From day one, my I Pad could not connect to the base, so there was no charging at all. I thought that there might have been some steps to take in order to make it work, so i went on the net and did a search for the product and found these reviews, with many customers complaining that the product never worked, or stopped working. I was able to return mine since I went back within the first two weeks of ownership. I was offered another one and decided not to take it, as there seems to be many other customers with the same problem, some after a few month of use only, but you won't be able to return it after that long.
Apple should take this product off its shelves. It is soiling the brand's reputation for selling quality stuff.

I have just discovered that you can not do this. I was going to use this with the duet display app as that requires a wired connection and it doesn't work. It only gives charge to the iPad which is a shame. I hope logi can fix this with a software patch unless it's a limitation of the smart connector.

Yes, my iPad spends most of its life at home on one of these docks, while at work using the keyboard cover. The only issue I've encountered is that at higher brightness levels the iPad will actually discharge while docked. (There's a reason Apple's "hours of usable time" are measured with the brightness not at full.)
